Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

What decided it
The limited depth, set-back position, and hipped roof design of the rear extension, combined with the removal of the garage, would result in only minimal overshadowing of a small area of the neighbour's garden in winter and no significant impact on outlook, thereby satisfying Policy GC4.
